My remark wasn't so serious as to merit such a rather involved, at times

irrelevant, discussion of the world economy. Perhaps the replier needs

more grounding in logic and less nights shooting the bull with the guys

and Southern Comfort at hand. My question was just a light-hearted

response to John's remark, which I doubt he made in any more serious-

ness than I made mine. I apologize for drawing attention too much away

from the matter at hand, learning Chinese, but pretzellogic is also partly

to blame. Good name for him as look what he has twisted us into.

According to the lesson in the dialogue,

Expansion's ex.7 should be translated as:

"You're so fat.  Don't eat too much chocolate."

Next-to-last sentence in the dialogue should be

translated as "You must go to the roadside to eat

it."
